Hexlox is a German, innovative system that secures all the bolts on a bike. How does it work? Fabulously simple and super effective - you just need to put a Hexlox inside the bolt head, which can then only be pulled out with a small, unique key.
Having such protection practically prevents the theft of wheels, saddle with a seatpost, or crankset. Our team has checked this solution out, and in our opinion, it works really well. It has also been tried and tested by such magazines as road.cc or GCN.
You can secure any bolt on your bike, but in our opinion, it makes the most sense to secure the seatpost, saddle and wheels because these components are worth a lot and can be stolen very quickly.
On this page, we offer just the set that is tailored to the type of bike you are interested in from us - single speed, gravel, single speed commuter, or 8-speed male/female city bikes.
The set contains 2 unique keys, 1 Hexlox to secure the bolt in the seatpost clamp, 1 Hexlox to secure the saddle mounting bolt on the seatpost, and the appropriate nuts/skewer for the front and rear wheel with matching Hexloxes.
If you are interested in securing only the wheels, seatpost and saddle, or you only want to focus on the stem or crankset, let us know. We will prepare a dedicated offer for you. To answer some common questions here: just securing the seatpost and the saddle costs 33€, and the wheels themselves cost 59€.
We highly recommend the Fendor Bendor folding fenders from Ass Saver. We have been using them ourselves for several years, and we are very satisfied.

Geometry
When designing the frames for our city bikes, we used the geometry of our single speeds as the heart. We modified them accordingly to allow a more upright riding position while maintaining high dynamics and great riding properties. The wider wheelbase and the modified rear triangle allow for the installation of fenders and a Shimano Nexus 8 multi-speed hub, making our city bikes perfect for commuting and effectively enabling you to get around the city in all weather conditions.
